Bonnie J. Stone

On November 4th, 2015, Our beautiful girl made her final journey to the glorious kingdom of God. Born January 13th, 1967 to Earl and Donna Price, she was never one to sit still. Her love of horses manifested in itself in her younger years when she got her own horse, Lady. Bonnie loved to ride, having trained to ride English, excelled gracefully where she and her horse almost seemed as one. In 1985, she met the love of her life, David Stone. They married on July 8th, 1989. To their union was born two beautiful boys, Jesse and Jamie. They became her purpose in life, travelling to lizard shows and baseball games. Bonnie's kind generous way brought the boys friends' to her home, the preferred place to hang out, where she became mom #2 to many. One of the highlights of their year was the annual vacation to fabulous mountain retreats in Gatlinburg, TN, made special even for others as she invited some of her sons friends to join them. As the boys grew up they found their own special girls, eventually blessing her with her greatest gift, 5 beautiful grandchildren who instantly became the center of her world. There was nothing she wouldn't do for them! Bonnie's warm, caring nature extended far beyond her family. She made it a point to make others' lives special; from weekly movies and lunch with her mom, constant companionship with her mom and sister, Candy, to adventures with her brother, Ed. Life to Bonnie was an adventure and she loved to share that spirit with those she loved. She never met a stranger and was quick with a kind word to those who needed it. Her kindness and generosity was also demonstrated with the help she gave the homeless and needy. Bonnie found great joy in helping others. The world was a far better place with her in it.
